    Default Ebay question

    Is is worth to list clothing by the item, or do most people just do lots? Why do they do that? I keep running into items at thrift stores that I know would probably sell (brand names). -- for example a great condition girls size 10/12 Gap shirt - too big for my kids but if I bought it for .50 , could I list that one shirt and expect anything?

    I tend to sell name brand things by themselves rather as lots - I find I make more that way.

    I agree, single items sell better, but sometimes people are going to ebay just for lots.... I personally go for the lots because it tends to be cheaper for me in the long run to purchase.

    I usually buy lots, but it seems single items (if brand name) sell better that way....depends on what it is

    All you can do is try it both ways and see what happens. I would think people would like to buy a lot of clothing to save on the shipping costs.
